December , 1842. .dtf. SAMUEL PERKINS. From Thatcher's Tales of the Indians. THE UCROES OF WALPOLB. The first civilized inhabitant of the present town of Walpole, N. II., was John Kilburn, who settled there in 1749. The large and fertile meadows at the mouth of Cold River, in that township, slightly covered with tall butter-nut and ancient elm trees, presented an invited prospect to new colonists, and an easy harvest to the hand of cultivation. Just above them, along the easy bank of the Connecticut, was the defile, bounded by steep mountains, which formed the Indian highway to and from Charleston, the next township. There, too, was the head of shad navigation, the great fishing ground of the savages from time immemorial. Next below this narrow pass, by the river, and nearer the meadows, is the site of an ancient Indian village, now occupied by a tavern. Next on the south, and bounding the meadows northerly, was Cold River, a small branch of the main stream, overshadowed with tall maples and elms. The meadows themselves were about half a mile in extent ; the Connecticut on their western side, and a semi-circle of woods on the east, with a central round eminence, forty feet high, from which issues at this day a medical spring. It was here that the adventurous and hardy Kilburn built himself a log-hut, and here he inhabited the solitude of the forest for two years, without any intercourse with friend or foe. During this time, his life was one continued scene of danger and hardship. He sought opportunities to cultivate the friendship of the Indians, who roamed and prowled in the woods around him ; but in this attempt he was wholly unsuccessful. They avoided him studiously in the day time, and in the night, he soon found that they approached his humble habitation only for the purpose of dealing him the deadly blow. He was finally obliged, in consequence of this state of things, to adopt the plan of "camping out" at different periods in the woods each night, with nothing but the cold earth for his bed, a bear skin for his covering, and a cartridge-box for his pillow. In this manner he continued himself to elude the scalping knives of his lurking enemies, though they not unfrequently visited and plundered his hut in his absence. In 1751, Colonel Benjamin Bellows obtained the charter of Walpole, and began a small settlement on a spot occupied to this day by the buildings of a gentleman of the same name, about a mile south from the establishment of Kilburn. There was at this time a fort also on the neighboring township ofNumber-Four now called Charleston. These additions to the power of the Whites in this quarter had an essential influence upon the respect and the fear felt for them by the Indians ; nor was it long before a company of tho latter descended the river in their canoes, landed above the falls, and invited their old acquaintance, Kilburn, to trade with them. He accepted their invitation without scruple or hesitancy, visited their encampment, bought furs of them, and made them presents of flints, flour and fish-hooks. From this time they continued to hunt, fish and lodge occasionally in the neighborhood. The report of their guns, wltlt wnicn me wnites lmd furnished Uiein long ere this, and the smoke of their low wigwams among the trees became mingled with the familiar occurrences ot daily life. The affuirs of the settlers continued to prosper until 1753, when the first alarming incident occurred to disturb their security. Two men, by the names of Twitchell and Flint, who had gone back to the hills, about a mile east of the settlement to procure some ash timber for oars, were fired upon and killed by the Indians. One of them was scalped. The other they barbarously cut open, took out his heart yet warm, laid it upon his breast, and thus left him to be found by his friends. This massacre was among the first appearances of a rupture of the negotiations for peace pending between England and France, and was the commencement of a new and long series of Indian ravages. It was, moreover, the first christian blood which was spilt in Walpole : and the impression it produced upon the minds of the settlers was propor-tionably deep and lasting. The bodies of the murdered men were buried near where they were found, in a spot still indicated by a ridge of land, on the west side of the road about two miles north of Wal- nole vtllace. It was believed by the friends of Twitchell at least Dy some oi tne numDer inai ins guardian spirit continued, as long as his savage murderers lived, to hover over them, by night and by day, and to warn them of the wiles of the Indians. Even a rock in the Connecticut river, where he used to fish with never-failing success, was for a long time held in religious veneration; and few, it is rumored of all those who to this day go to angle from " Twitch ell Rock," return without taking from the stream a generous frv. In the spring of 17G5, an Indian by the name of Philip, who had just learned Miglisn enougn to do understood, visited Kilburn's log-house, under pre tence of being upon a hunting excursion and in want ot provisions, lie was treated witn Kindness, ana furnished liberally with flints, meal, and various other articles which he asked for. Soon after his de parture, it was ascertained that the same Indian had visited all the settlements on Connecticut river about the same time, and with the same plausible story, The conclusion was, with Kilburn and his fellow set tlers, that Philip was a scout employed by the enemy, This susnicion was soon alter continued oy intelli gence received at all the forts on the frontier, through a friendly Indian, from Governor Shirley at Albany. He stated that four or five hundred of the Savages were collected in Canada, whoso object it wns to butcher the whole white population on Connecticut river. Tim RPttlers and those of Walpole among the number were startled by these tidings; but they wfiro tint disheartened. They valued their hard- earned harvests and their solitary homes in the wil-dpmess. humble as they were, too high to leave them from the mere apprehension of danger. They had been accustomed, too, to all the hardships of a rude i:r . nnl lonrr linil thpv looked for tha timn to comn. 1 1 1 U , Uliu " ' J ' as it came now, when they must defend themselves or die in the cause. Kilburn and his comrades now fortified their habl tations round about by a palisade of stakes, with such other preparations of the same nature as the means allowed. On these alone they depended for safetv. the nearest garrison, la torce ot 100 men, beinp; a mile distant, at the settlement of Col. Bel lows. Measures being thus prudently taken, noth ing remained but to wait for the onset of the enemy. On the seventeenth of August, 1755, Kilburn, and his son, in his eighteenth year, a man by the name of Peak, and his son, were returning from work about noon, when one of them suddenly dis covered the red-legs of Indians among the alders that skirted the meadows, as thick, in his own language' "as grass-hoppers." They instantly fled for the House, fastened the door, and began to make preparations for an obstinate defence. In this they were assisted, as well as encouraged by Kilburn's wife and daughter Hitty,. whose particular charge, however, it was too keep a watch upon the movements of the enemy. In about fifteen minutes the latter were seen crawling up the bank east of the house, and as they crossed the foot-path one by one, one hundred andninety-seven were counted ; about the same number remaining in ambush near tho mouth of Cold River. The object of this party was to way-lay Col. Bellows and his men, whom they knew to be working at his mill about a mile east. Before a great while, ' accordingly, these people came along, each carrying a bag of meal on his back. Presently their dogs began to growl, and to betray other symptoms of haying discovered or suspected an enemy. All this Bellows understood perfectly well, nor was he at a loss in forming his opinions of the state of the case ; he had no doubt the Indians were close at hand, in ambush, and he took his measures accordingly. He ordered all his men, about thirty, to throw down their meal, and advance to the rising ground before them, carefully crawl up the bank, spring upon their feet, give one shout, and instantly drop among the tall sweet fern, which in that place covered the ground. The maneuvre succeeded : tor as soon as the shout was heard, the Indians all arose from their ambush in a semi-cilcle around the path Bellows was to follow. This gave his party a fine chance for a fair shot ; and they improved it promptly by a general discharge, which so disconcerted tho plans of the Indians, that they darted away in the bushes, without firing a single shot Perceiving, however, that their party was too numerous tor his ; he ordered nis men to file off to the south, and make for the fort. Not long after, these Indians came out upon the eminence east of Kilburn's house. Here, the "Old De vil" Philip, as he was now generally called being the same wily savage who had visited Kilburn's the season previous came forward, secured himself behind a large tree, and called loudly for those in the house to surrender, "Old John young John" ho cried "I know you come out here we give good quarter." "Quarter!" shouted Kilburn from the house, with a tremendous voice which thrilled through every Indian heart "Quarter! you black rascals, begone or we will quarter you !" .. 6 m. .. - . t: Tu;ii n ra mus disappointed in ins uppm-auun, m... intoned to the main body of his companions. After a four minntpo' rnnsnltation the Indian war-whoop was raised, as if, in Kilburn's rude language, all the devils had Been let loose." ruiuurn wan iiuuuug daunted by this performance, however; and he even managed to get the first fire, before the smoke of the enemies' guns obstructed his aim. He was confident that this discharge brought down an Indian, wno, from his extraordinary size, and from other circumstances, appeared to be Phillip. A moment after, the companions of the fallen savage now mustered in full torce rushed fiercely lorwara to tne worn oi destruction j and probably not fewer than four hun dred bullets were lodged in Kilburn s house at the first fire. The roof, especially, was made a perfect riddle sieve." This leaden shower was kept up for some time, with an incessant blaze and clamor, while detachments ot the enemy were amusing themselves with butchering the stray cattle, and destroying the hay and grain in the surrounding meadow. Kilburn and his men, meanwhile, were by no . means idle. Their powder was already poured, into hats for the convenience of loading in a hurry, and every thing prepared for a spirited defence or a glorious death. They had several guns in the house, all of which were kept hot by incessant firing through the port-holes; and as they had no ammunition to pare, each one took special aim, to nave every dui- let tell. The women assisted in loading the guns. When the stock of lead grew scanty, they had also the presence of mind to suspend blankets horizontal ly near the root ot the house, inside, to catch tne enemy's balls. These they immediately run into new bullets, it necessary, while the men took it upon themselves to have them returned to the savages with interest. The latter made several attempts to burst open the doors of the house, but the fire of the brave little garrison was too hot for them. Most ot the time, therefore, they endeavored to keep behind stumps, logs, and trees, evidently snowing, oy wis management, that they began to feel the force of the remark made to them by Kilburn, as wo have seen in the onset An incessant firing, however, was kept up on their nart until near sundown. Then they gradually retreated ; and when the sun had sank behind the western hills, the sound of the guns, and the cry of the war-whoop died away in silence. How many ot the enemy tell on this occasion, ne ver was ascertained. Of the little garrison, Peak only was wounded in the hip, hy exposing himselt too much before a port-hole ; and for want of surgical aid this proved fatal on the sixth day. The French and Indian war continued until 1763; but the village of Walpole was not afterwards molested in any instance by the enemy. Kilburn united in his character, an tnat manes a successful warrior. No man had more of ready foresight and prudence none could be more intrepid and brave, lie lived to see his tamiiy settled ana nourishing, and the fourth generation coming upon the stage. A plain unpolished stone points out the spot in the burying ground ot the village, where sleep ms mortal remains under this inscription : In memory ot John Kilburn, who departed this life for a better, April 8th, 1789, in the 85th year of his age. He was the first sottler of this town, in 1749. His son, "young John," revisited the scene of his youthful exploits for the last time in 1814. He died in 1822, among his children at Shrewsbury, Vermont Speakinq abodt Dogs. Every body remembers Bose. His master once took a partner in business. For some days he dogged his steps constantly, wherever he went, and intimated to him in his way that he thought he was making himself rather familiar on a slight acquaintance ; bnt Bose was not a dog to do anything rashly, and he therefore laid low, and watched the movements. At length the sign of the new firm was raised Bose walked out into the street, set himself on his haunches, as dogs have a way of doing, and read it carefully. Ho went in, grinned an humble apology to his new master, and dogged his steps no more. Nash Tel. 9,500 quarts of Milk were brought into New York by the Erie railroad last Monday.

December , 1842. .dtf. SAMUEL PERKINS. From Thatcher's Tales of the Indians. THE UCROES OF WALPOLB. The first civilized inhabitant of the present town of Walpole, N. II., was John Kilburn, who settled there in 1749. The large and fertile meadows at the mouth of Cold River, in that township, slightly covered with tall butter-nut and ancient elm trees, presented an invited prospect to new colonists, and an easy harvest to the hand of cultivation. Just above them, along the easy bank of the Connecticut, was the defile, bounded by steep mountains, which formed the Indian highway to and from Charleston, the next township. There, too, was the head of shad navigation, the great fishing ground of the savages from time immemorial. Next below this narrow pass, by the river, and nearer the meadows, is the site of an ancient Indian village, now occupied by a tavern. Next on the south, and bounding the meadows northerly, was Cold River, a small branch of the main stream, overshadowed with tall maples and elms. The meadows themselves were about half a mile in extent ; the Connecticut on their western side, and a semi-circle of woods on the east, with a central round eminence, forty feet high, from which issues at this day a medical spring. It was here that the adventurous and hardy Kilburn built himself a log-hut, and here he inhabited the solitude of the forest for two years, without any intercourse with friend or foe. During this time, his life was one continued scene of danger and hardship. He sought opportunities to cultivate the friendship of the Indians, who roamed and prowled in the woods around him ; but in this attempt he was wholly unsuccessful. They avoided him studiously in the day time, and in the night, he soon found that they approached his humble habitation only for the purpose of dealing him the deadly blow. He was finally obliged, in consequence of this state of things, to adopt the plan of "camping out" at different periods in the woods each night, with nothing but the cold earth for his bed, a bear skin for his covering, and a cartridge-box for his pillow. In this manner he continued himself to elude the scalping knives of his lurking enemies, though they not unfrequently visited and plundered his hut in his absence. In 1751, Colonel Benjamin Bellows obtained the charter of Walpole, and began a small settlement on a spot occupied to this day by the buildings of a gentleman of the same name, about a mile south from the establishment of Kilburn. There was at this time a fort also on the neighboring township ofNumber-Four now called Charleston. These additions to the power of the Whites in this quarter had an essential influence upon the respect and the fear felt for them by the Indians ; nor was it long before a company of tho latter descended the river in their canoes, landed above the falls, and invited their old acquaintance, Kilburn, to trade with them. He accepted their invitation without scruple or hesitancy, visited their encampment, bought furs of them, and made them presents of flints, flour and fish-hooks. From this time they continued to hunt, fish and lodge occasionally in the neighborhood. The report of their guns, wltlt wnicn me wnites lmd furnished Uiein long ere this, and the smoke of their low wigwams among the trees became mingled with the familiar occurrences ot daily life. The affuirs of the settlers continued to prosper until 1753, when the first alarming incident occurred to disturb their security. Two men, by the names of Twitchell and Flint, who had gone back to the hills, about a mile east of the settlement to procure some ash timber for oars, were fired upon and killed by the Indians. One of them was scalped. The other they barbarously cut open, took out his heart yet warm, laid it upon his breast, and thus left him to be found by his friends. This massacre was among the first appearances of a rupture of the negotiations for peace pending between England and France, and was the commencement of a new and long series of Indian ravages. It was, moreover, the first christian blood which was spilt in Walpole : and the impression it produced upon the minds of the settlers was propor-tionably deep and lasting. The bodies of the murdered men were buried near where they were found, in a spot still indicated by a ridge of land, on the west side of the road about two miles north of Wal- nole vtllace. It was believed by the friends of Twitchell at least Dy some oi tne numDer inai ins guardian spirit continued, as long as his savage murderers lived, to hover over them, by night and by day, and to warn them of the wiles of the Indians. Even a rock in the Connecticut river, where he used to fish with never-failing success, was for a long time held in religious veneration; and few, it is rumored of all those who to this day go to angle from " Twitch ell Rock," return without taking from the stream a generous frv. In the spring of 17G5, an Indian by the name of Philip, who had just learned Miglisn enougn to do understood, visited Kilburn's log-house, under pre tence of being upon a hunting excursion and in want ot provisions, lie was treated witn Kindness, ana furnished liberally with flints, meal, and various other articles which he asked for. Soon after his de parture, it was ascertained that the same Indian had visited all the settlements on Connecticut river about the same time, and with the same plausible story, The conclusion was, with Kilburn and his fellow set tlers, that Philip was a scout employed by the enemy, This susnicion was soon alter continued oy intelli gence received at all the forts on the frontier, through a friendly Indian, from Governor Shirley at Albany. He stated that four or five hundred of the Savages were collected in Canada, whoso object it wns to butcher the whole white population on Connecticut river. Tim RPttlers and those of Walpole among the number were startled by these tidings; but they wfiro tint disheartened. They valued their hard- earned harvests and their solitary homes in the wil-dpmess. humble as they were, too high to leave them from the mere apprehension of danger.

Kilburn and his comrades now fortified their habl tations round about by a palisade of stakes, with such other preparations of the same nature as the means allowed. On these alone they depended for safetv. the nearest garrison, la torce ot 100 men, beinp; a mile distant, at the settlement of Col. Bel lows. Measures being thus prudently taken, noth ing remained but to wait for the onset of the enemy. On the seventeenth of August, 1755, Kilburn, and his son, in his eighteenth year, a man by the name of Peak, and his son, were returning from work about noon, when one of them suddenly dis covered the red-legs of Indians among the alders that skirted the meadows, as thick, in his own language' "as grass-hoppers." They instantly fled for the House, fastened the door, and began to make preparations for an obstinate defence. In this they were assisted, as well as encouraged by Kilburn's wife and daughter Hitty,. whose particular charge, however, it was too keep a watch upon the movements of the enemy. In about fifteen minutes the latter were seen crawling up the bank east of the house, and as they crossed the foot-path one by one, one hundred andninety-seven were counted ; about the same number remaining in ambush near tho mouth of Cold River. The object of this party was to way-lay Col. Bellows and his men, whom they knew to be working at his mill about a mile east. Before a great while, ' accordingly, these people came along, each carrying a bag of meal on his back. Presently their dogs began to growl, and to betray other symptoms of haying discovered or suspected an enemy. All this Bellows understood perfectly well, nor was he at a loss in forming his opinions of the state of the case ; he had no doubt the Indians were close at hand, in ambush, and he took his measures accordingly. He ordered all his men, about thirty, to throw down their meal, and advance to the rising ground before them, carefully crawl up the bank, spring upon their feet, give one shout, and instantly drop among the tall sweet fern, which in that place covered the ground. The maneuvre succeeded : tor as soon as the shout was heard, the Indians all arose from their ambush in a semi-cilcle around the path Bellows was to follow. This gave his party a fine chance for a fair shot ; and they improved it promptly by a general discharge, which so disconcerted tho plans of the Indians, that they darted away in the bushes, without firing a single shot Perceiving, however, that their party was too numerous tor his ; he ordered nis men to file off to the south, and make for the fort. Not long after, these Indians came out upon the eminence east of Kilburn's house. Here, the "Old De vil" Philip, as he was now generally called being the same wily savage who had visited Kilburn's the season previous came forward, secured himself behind a large tree, and called loudly for those in the house to surrender, "Old John young John" ho cried "I know you come out here we give good quarter." "Quarter!" shouted Kilburn from the house, with a tremendous voice which thrilled through every Indian heart "Quarter! you black rascals, begone or we will quarter you !" .. 6 m. .. - . t: Tu;ii n ra mus disappointed in ins uppm-auun, m... intoned to the main body of his companions. After a four minntpo' rnnsnltation the Indian war-whoop was raised, as if, in Kilburn's rude language, all the devils had Been let loose." ruiuurn wan iiuuuug daunted by this performance, however; and he even managed to get the first fire, before the smoke of the enemies' guns obstructed his aim. He was confident that this discharge brought down an Indian, wno, from his extraordinary size, and from other circumstances, appeared to be Phillip. A moment after, the companions of the fallen savage now mustered in full torce rushed fiercely lorwara to tne worn oi destruction j and probably not fewer than four hun dred bullets were lodged in Kilburn s house at the first fire. The roof, especially, was made a perfect riddle sieve." This leaden shower was kept up for some time, with an incessant blaze and clamor, while detachments ot the enemy were amusing themselves with butchering the stray cattle, and destroying the hay and grain in the surrounding meadow. Kilburn and his men, meanwhile, were by no . means idle. Their powder was already poured, into hats for the convenience of loading in a hurry, and every thing prepared for a spirited defence or a glorious death. They had several guns in the house, all of which were kept hot by incessant firing through the port-holes; and as they had no ammunition to pare, each one took special aim, to nave every dui- let tell. The women assisted in loading the guns. When the stock of lead grew scanty, they had also the presence of mind to suspend blankets horizontal ly near the root ot the house, inside, to catch tne enemy's balls. These they immediately run into new bullets, it necessary, while the men took it upon themselves to have them returned to the savages with interest. The latter made several attempts to burst open the doors of the house, but the fire of the brave little garrison was too hot for them. Most ot the time, therefore, they endeavored to keep behind stumps, logs, and trees, evidently snowing, oy wis management, that they began to feel the force of the remark made to them by Kilburn, as wo have seen in the onset An incessant firing, however, was kept up on their nart until near sundown. Then they gradually retreated ; and when the sun had sank behind the western hills, the sound of the guns, and the cry of the war-whoop died away in silence. How many ot the enemy tell on this occasion, ne ver was ascertained. Of the little garrison, Peak only was wounded in the hip, hy exposing himselt too much before a port-hole ; and for want of surgical aid this proved fatal on the sixth day. The French and Indian war continued until 1763; but the village of Walpole was not afterwards molested in any instance by the enemy. Kilburn united in his character, an tnat manes a successful warrior. No man had more of ready foresight and prudence none could be more intrepid and brave, lie lived to see his tamiiy settled ana nourishing, and the fourth generation coming upon the stage.
